Users of the non-profit certificate authority Let's Encrypt, which is community-controlled and offers free certificates to anyone, encountered issues verifying domain ownership in the '.top' zone via DNS when obtaining certificates. As of June 25, DNS servers responsible for the '.top' top-level domain stopped accepting requests from the resolvers of the Lets Encrypt project used during the DNS-01 verification process, which is required, for example, to obtain wildcard certificates that cover a group of subdomains (e.g., *.example.com). <\/p>\n
Initially, it was thought that the problem was related to DNSSEC, but it was later revealed that the failure in the DNSSEC check is not the cause but rather a consequence, as the DNS servers of the '.top' domain return an error for all Lets Encrypt requests, indicative of deliberate blocking. Employees of Let's Encrypt are attempting to contact the owners of the NS servers. domain<\/a> top, but so far unsuccessfully. \u041f\u043e\u043b\u044c\u0437\u043e\u0432\u0430\u0442\u0435\u043b\u0438
